Story
Chiquita is approximately 6 years around 30 pounds and Mica is 4 years around 16 pounds. Both are spayed and fully vaccinated French Poodle breed. Both are leash potty & crate trained~ soon they will be a pro of all three!! Both are affectionate but very shy with new environments. Mica is extremely attached to her sister Chiquita so a dual adoption is best. Both get along well with other dogs, adults and children alike and should be able to learn your family’s routine rather quickly to become part of the gang in no time!!! Chiquita & Mica were neglected by their previous owner but were relinquished to our lead rescuer. They are now flourishing under the loving care of FHSTJ. (Jan 2025) Chiquita & Mica have a lot of love to give and long for a family who can provide them with the affection and attention they crave. They deserve a warm and loving home where they can feel cherished as a member of the family!!!

Meet Percival our Aussiedoodle prince charming!  Known to us as Percy, Percival is a quiet and kind soul.  After 5 years serving his dues as a doodle stud paycheck he was discarded when the dominant Bernese male on the ranch started beating him up.  What was assumed to be a great opportunity at a discounted designer dog turned out to be a poor fit for him and his adoptive family both.  After helping them when he darted the door for the 4th time in 8 days we agreed to take him on when they could no longer keep him safe. After time to decompress and get to know him here is what we know about this royal boy.  Despite being a breeder stud he was undoubetedly loved.  He knows a kind hand, leans in for security and attention, walks well on leash and is affectionate.  He is quiet, calm, sweet and eager to love. It is also clear his life experience was likely limited to the ranch where he bred.  He is still learning confidence with strange situations, places, noises and people.  However, he leans heavily on the person he knows and takes their lead, willing to explore and engage cautiously.  His gentle demeanor with children is precious.  He's been good around calm and neutral dogs of all sizes.  His exposure to cats and chickens has proven favorable.   This boy transitions well and just wants to be safe and loved.  Can that be you? ##2535415##

Story
Sweet and spunky! Hi there! I’m Delfina or Daphne– a sweet and spunky 2.5-year-old Poodle Mix, weighing about 15 pounds. I may be small, but I’ve got a big heart and an even bigger personality! Thanks to the wonderful folks at TAP, I was rescued from an LA shelter just in time. I had a broken jaw when they found me, but don’t worry – it’s all healed up now, and I’m feeling better than ever. Now I’m on the lookout for my perfect furever family! I’m full of energy and love to run, play, and explore. Some of my favorite activities include tug toys and going on walks.  I also adore being the center of attention and hanging out with doggie friends. But when the excitement winds down, I’m just as happy snuggling up with you. I’ll even sleep in your arms all night long without moving a muscle — seriously, I’m the ultimate cuddle bug. I’ve got a silly, lovable personality that’s sure to make you laugh. I’m working hard on my potty training — just a few accidents here and there — and I’m a total pro on the leash. I can be a little territorial around other pups, but I truly enjoy their company and love to play once we’re all friends. That said, I do get scared easily and have a big bark when I’m feeling anxious. I also struggle with separation anxiety, so I’d really thrive in a home where I’m not left alone for long stretches. If I get too lonely, I might rummage through the trash to cope.  But hey, I’m healthy overall and already spayed, so I’m ready to go! My dream home would include kiddos (I LOVE attention!) and maybe a furry sibling or two, as long as we hit it off. I seem to get along with cats just fine, too. More than anything, though, I just want to be part of a loving family who’s ready for a loyal, playful, snuggly companion like me. My adoption fee is $450 and that includes spaying/neutering, shots, and microchip.  If you want to take me home, please fill out the form on the website here: https://theanimalpad.org/adoption-application/.     ##2198718##
